"G" is gentlest
« Reply #15110 on: September 29, 2007, 06:27:54 pm »
Chief among the uncredited extras in Brokeback Mountain is the wind:

 - the gentlest breeze wafting cigarette smoke
 - the flinty wind drawing a bestial drone from the damaged krummholz and slit rock
 - the hard and cold gusting wind
 - the coursing, endless wind combing the grass

Under the wind drone he heard steel slamming off bone.

"H" is hauls

Ennis finds he has bitten off more than he can chew when he hauls a guy out of his pickup in front of the aptly named Black 'n Blue Eagle bar.

'I' is incongruous

Ennis' claims of not pursuing a job with the electric company due to "clumsiness", were incongruous with his overall adeptness with physical skills.

Two extras are visible just as the store window mirrors a determined Alma, heading off to do an extra shift at the supermarket.

N is "Netherworld"

The two bikers Ennis fought during the 4th of July revels resembled denizens of some unpleasant Netherworld.

"O" is overpowering

After overpowering Biker #1, Ennis asked Biker #2, "What about it?  Wanna swallow 'bout half your teeth?"

"P" is prefers

Ennis makes it clear that he prefers not to have some cowboy standing over him as he tries to get rid of that Dubois meal.

R is "retreat"

The cowboy in question made a hasty retreat from the alleyway after Ennis yelled at him.

Seated amongst the rodeo spectators, Lureen watched as Jack made a fine ride on a tough, spinning bull.
